When I was in high school, my father was Commander of Benton AFB, on Red Rock Mountain. We lived on the base. In 1960 or '61 (age 15-16), I did some work for the Provost Marshall. There were areas on the base that he needed pictures of, but they were high security areas, so cameras were not allowed. I had some drawing skills, so I was sent in to draw the areas. I got a top secret access badge, which usually requires an extensive background check - I guess my father being the commander shortened that a bit. I was photographed and fingerprinted. This is a copy of the mug shot. It's a poor quality print, curling and flaking, but I thought it might be interesting.
The dark line above my hair is the 5' mark. I actually continued to grow another inch or two in college. Also, no makeup here. Once upon a time, my eyes were beautiful....
